8 Years for Cunningham

The first jail sentence for the Republican sleaze operations. And the longest ever for a Congressman: 8 years, 4 months. I think it was well deserved; he got 1 year for approximately every $300,000 in bribes he took. Oh, and if you want any of the antiques or rugs he got, they will be sold, according to Talking Points Memo:

In the market for a commode? a piece of history?

Duke's antiques are set to be auctioned off in three weeks.

See the loot here - it's under "Antiques."

Proceeds to benefit the FBI, the Internal Revenue Service Criminal Investigation branch and the Defense Criminal Investigative Service.

Antique toilets...that's what I need.
